Intro: Am C D F Am Dm F
Am C D
Go ahead, do whatever you want
F
This is all about you
Am C D
It's okay, don't bother feeling guilty
F
Like the rest of us do
C G
The truth is something you've heard about
Am Em
But you don't know what it means
F Fm
It's only a word, after all
C G
It's just one more thing you don't take seriously
Am C
You were bored, so you played with your wife's best friend
D F
Wrecked families along the way
Am C
Then you stepped on the people who stood beside you
D F
'Cause they looked at you the wrong way
C G
And now you're so lonely
Am Em
And there's no one there for you
F Fm
The bodies in your wake, it was their fault
C G
They didn't try to understand you
Chorus:
C Am Em G
No more excuses, baby
C Am Em G
No more excuses, baby
Fm G
No more excuses
Am C
Your life is one long hit and run
D F
You don't bother to look back
Am C
There's always someone running behind you
D F
Spreading dirt, to cover your tracks
C G
When I was all alone and I needed you
Am Em
What a price I paid back then
F Fm
For a little warmth, you wanted everything I had
C G
I'll never reach for you again
Chorus:
C Am Em G
No more excuses, baby
C Am Em G
No more excuses, baby
Fm G F
No more excuses
Bridge:
Em
If you could only hear what people say
Am
As soon as you turn your head away
G F
Do you really think that you won't pay
G
When you're all alone one day
C Em
You have to live with yourself, every day
C
But I can walk away
INTERLUDE: C Am Em G C Am Em G
Chorus:
C Am Em G
No more excuses, baby
C Am Em G
No more excuses, baby
C Am Em G
No more excuses, baby
Fm G
No more excuses, baby
